dgoyette 12 #27 Posted May 8, 2010 Duff - love them both. Really like the AG's and the black front axle. Great pictures! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jpmcleod 4 #28 Posted May 8, 2010 Can't wait to get my 312-8 put together. Hope it looks as good as yours. I like the black wheel look and have started your trend. Maybe you started something good. The black hoods are kinda like the new model Chevrolet pick-ups, 2007's and up. I really did not like the looks at first but they sure have grown on me. I am up to 2 black hoods and looking for more. No new truck though. Wish I could go to PA for the 12th annual Wheel Horse meet next month. Maybe someone will post some pics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HankB 16 #29 Posted May 8, 2010 Mighty fine maroon stripers!!! Question: Which ones have maroon stripes? I see that my 314-H has black stripes. Is it age? Engine? Trans? Inquiring minds... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As I understand it, the pre-Toro 300, 400 and 500 series are what folks commonly call the "maroon stripe" machines. Somebody got a more accurate answer, maybe?

TT-(Moderator) 1,131 #31 Posted May 9, 2010 "Maroon stripes" should be 1985 to 1989 models - referring to the dominant color of the decals. Some of those are technically "Toro", but the name didn't appear on the (black) decals until 1990. I tend to group them all as "raccoons" due to the black mask around the "eyes".

Doubletrouble 10 #36 Posted May 10, 2010 That's a nice set of tractors. I like the look of the ag's at all 4 corners. Really like the black wheels and frame on the one with the ag's too. Nice job. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
